Frequently Asked Questions

1. Where should I have the Announcement Package shipped?

   If you are going to a baby shower and / or want to hand-deliver the gift, then have the Announcement Package shipped to yourself. We do not need the recipient’s name or address when you purchase the gift. They will provide their name and address to us when they register and activate their subscription. If you want the Announcement Package shipped directly to the recipient, then during checkout, click “Ship to a different address” and enter the recipient’s name and address.

2. How does the book subscription work?

   After receiving the Announcement Package, the recipient will first create an account at our website and activate their subscription using the unique activation code on the certificate included with the Announcement Package. When the book subscription is activated, points will be deposited into the recipient’s account. The recipient can then use those points to purchase books from our website. Additional points are credited on the first day of each month following activation for the duration of the subscription.

3. How many books does the recipient get each month?

   Depending on the size / type of books they select, the recipient will be able to purchase 3 - 5 books per month.

4. What types of books are available?

   We have hundreds of award-winning children’s books to choose from, organized by age (newborn - 5), type (e.g., touch & feel, lift-the-flap) and theme (bedtime, ABCs, numbers, colors, etc.). Our book selection is carefully curated by our experts and new titles are added often. To see a sample of the books we carry, please click here.

5. When does the subscription start and does it expire?

   The Book Subscription starts when the recipient activates their subscription online. Points are deposited into the recipient’s account each month. The recipient does not need to use the points right away. Any unused points will roll-over to the following month. The points never expire. Once the recipient has used all of their points, the subscription will end.

6. Are there any additional shipping charges to the recipient?

   No. Rest assured, there are no additional charges to the recipient when they order their books.

7. How long does it take for the books to be delivered?

   The books are delivered via USPS usually within 5 - 7 business days after we receive the order.
